I suggest that you add, under Personalities, "Bob Dylan, composed the song 'One more cup of coffee' from the album Desire, while visiting the Roma festival on his 34th birthday in 1975."

One of the clearest references is in the transcript of two concerts held on consecutive nights at Alameda County Coliseum, Oakland, California, 13/14 November 1978, when Dylan mentions it in his introduction ("BobTalk") prior to performing the song.

BobTalk Thank you. I once went to the South of France on my birthday to a festival of gypsies down there. They had come from all over the world. Anyway, I got mixed up with someone and wrote this song. (before One More Cup Of Coffee (Valley Below))

4750 Alameda County Coliseum, Oakland, California, 14 November 1978 Concert # 42 of the 1978 US Fall Tour. 1978 concert # 91. BobTalk One year on my birthday I went to France where they have a big gypsy festival. All the gypsies from all over the world go there, and they party for a week. It just happens to be on my birthday. Anyway, I met the king of the gypsies a little ways away from there. He had 16 wives and 100 children and he still wasn't faithful and true. Anyway I did get mixed up with someone over there. I don't remember what was happening but in the morning they said, "Would you like anything for the road?" And without thinking I just said “one more cup of coffee.” I wasn’t sure if I could say anything else, but it was dangerous territory. (before One More Cup Of Coffee (Valley Below))
